I think that progress reports for every dream are essential, so we all can track if we are indeed moving and making things happen, hehe! :star:

:happy:

Initially, I planned to have the “virtual” kawaii cafe to be launched first… but because I’m the crazy one who does everything (though I have amazing creative & super helpful friends huhu!) and I had to concentrate on Kawaii in Manila 2 convention, I had to take a pause in this web project for sometime.

But the visualizing and dreaming and working hard didn’t stop~ I just went to another direction and had adventures, haha! 🙂

Here’s a quick post (loads of photos) of Kaila’s craziest days in her life– September 5 and September 6!

:happy:

Had a quick brunch at Tutto Domani~ here’s a photo of our kawaii primer! 😀

We met up at around 11 AM at Hotel Celeste to prepare for the LucyPop rehearsal + fashion show!

All photos were taken by my brother.. I was too busy fixing everything.. doki doki

While waiting for everyone else. At first, the LucyPop models / volunteers were all shyyyyyyy! 🙂

After wearing the seifuku, kawaii friendships happened, haha!

You know why I love working with LucyPop Japan too? It is because we share the same vision towards the concept of “kawaii”.

I met other companies / big people in Japan and most of them cared ONLY about how to make a huge money out of this “kawaii boom” alone.

For me, and the whole Kawaii PH team / community.. our approach with sharing the kawaii culture has always been different. 🙂

Kamiyama-san told me in our first meeting that by wearing LucyPop uniform.. and when you see another girl wearing the same / different uniform, you two can become instant friends because you can feel the “connection”!

I think that most girls who grew up under the huge influence of Japanese culture once dreamt about wearing an authentic one.

So it’s really just more than “wearing” a seifuku like a costume.. it’s also about feeling “kawaii”& realizing a kawaii dream we all girls had / have.

( Wowww so deeep haha~ but really, I think these are true since I did survey around randomly + I asked the kawaii girls about how / what they felt when they wore one, hehe~ )

And that.. my friends… is the power of Japanese schoolgirl uniforms, haha!

Big thanks to Justin for doing a great job with the whole Lucy Pop Japan in Kawaii in Manila 2 coverage!
